For a series of stories Monson is producing about the best and worst tacklers, Bell graded out as the NFL's top tackling safety and near the top among all defenders.

ProFootballFocus.com broke down every play on film and counted the missed tackles and solo tackles. He used those figures to determine a "tackle inefficiency rating." The formula divides missed tackles by attempted solo tackles to come up with an evaluation.

Bell was the NFL's most effective safety tackler. He was blamed for one missed tackle and made 90 solos, giving him a miniscule 1.10 TIR. No defensive player, regardless of position, had more than 60 tackles with one or no misses.

I won't disagree with you there PR. I think a great deal of YB. His effort is phenomenal. His conditioning. His intelligence and his physical skills. He was 1 physical developmental project player that actually got it.. and he worked HARD for it.
